Give teachers stun guns to protect students

The National Rifle Association is way off base to state that every school should have an armed person there to protect the teachers and children for the simple reason that an assailant would shoot them first and then proceed with his intended actions.

To arm the teachers is another brainless idea; it takes months and countless practice to achieve the status of an expert or distinguished expert. Some police officers never attain the standard, only a qualifying marksman score.

I would propose that all teachers be certified with a Taser gun. It is nonlethal, no fear of a ricochet, easily taught to use and instantly stops an assailant anywhere he is hit. It would give classroom teachers the means to defend themselves and their pupils.
